About the journal
The Journal of Health Politics, Policy and Law publishes multidisciplinary research and policy analysis related to the intersection of health, public policy, politics, and law. This web site is intended as a companion to the print version of the journal and offers access to book reviews and a database of article abstracts.

Beginning with the Vol. 24, No. 4 (1999), JHPPL is available as an e-journal in Project Muse.

Brief Instructions for Submitting Manuscripts to the Editor

1. Articles, Commentaries, and Reports: Submit four hard copies and one (1) copy on disk in PDF format to Mark Schlesinger, Editor, 77 Prospect Street, Box 208209, Yale University, New Haven, CT 06520-8209. Although we prefer PDF format, we will also accept copies in Word and WordPerfect. It is advisable but not essential at this stage for the manuscript to conform to house style. Because manuscripts are sent anonymously to referees for their evaluation, make sure that your name and affiliation appear only on a separate title page.

Do not submit your article simultaneously to other publications.

So that you can be reached quickly and easily, please provide your current addresses, telephone numbers, and facsimile numbers. A current email address should also be included for timely and quick correspondence.

All manuscripts (for articles and reports from the field) must contain an abstract.

If your manuscript is accepted for publication, you will receive more detailed style guidelines with your final acceptance letter. They are available at any time at your request.

2.Review Essays and Book Reviews: If you would like to review books in the field, write to Colleen Grogan, Book Review Editor, University of Chicago, School of Social Service Administration, 969 East 60th Street, Chicago, IL 60637.

3. Items for News and Notes: Send them to Chris Conover, Center for Health Policy, Law and Management, Box 90253 , Duke University, Durham, NC 27708.

Financial Disclosure Policy

Authors are required to disclose any commercial or other associations that might pose a conflict of interest in connection with the submitted article. This includes conflicts involving one's employer or former employer. All funding sources or consulting relationships associated with the work should be acknowledged on the title page, as should institutional or corporate affiliations of the authors.

JHPPL Editorial Production Style Guide

When your accepted manuscript arrives at the editorial office, it passes through several stages before we send it to the typesetter. The managing editor will copyedit it, send it back to you for your additions and changes, mark it with codes for the typesetter, and photocopy it. If you can prepare your manuscript for us according to the specifications outlined here, we can work more efficiently.

We would be very pleased to receive the FINAL version of your manuscript on disk (saving it on a double-sided, high-density disk) in Word for Windows or DOS, or in WordPerfect for Windows or DOS. Because we use an IBM-compatible PC system, manuscripts saved in Macintosh format are difficult for us to handle without sending them to an outside vendor for conversion.We will accept your disk in any program, however, and will try to convert it to Word for Windows. In any case, please label the disk with the file name, the program used to create it, and the version number of the program used. The disk should contain only the final version of the manuscript.

Please do not send original manuscripts on disk. To avoid editing and typesetting earlier versions of revised manuscripts, we do not want to receive electronic copies of your manuscript until after final acceptance.

1. Writing the Manuscript

1.1 Because JHPPL is an interdisciplinary journal, it will be read by persons outside of your specialized field. Write simply and directly, avoiding jargon and other academic conventions, such as impersonal constructions and the passive voice. Helpful guides are Strunk and White's Elements of Style (New York: Macmillan, 1979) and Richard Wydick's Plain English for Lawyers (Durham, NC: Carolina Wren Press, 1985). We also consult Mathematics into Type (Providence, RI: American Mathematical Society, 1979); Webster's Tenth New Collegiate Dictionary; The Bluebook: A Uniform System of Citation, 15th edition (Cambridge, MA: Harvard Law Review Association, 1991); and The Chicago Manual of Style, 14th edition.

1.2 On the first page of your article, type only the title, your name, and affiliation (and those of any coauthors). Titles and subheads are easier to read and remember if they are short and simple.

1.3 About footnotes: Send them to us formatted as endnotes. In the journal, they will print as footnotes. Please keep them few and brief. Cue them in the text with superscript numerals and type them on a separate sheet double spaced and numbered with regular-sized, online numerals, with a line space between each entry. A note of acknowledgment can precede the footnotes, but do not number it.

1.4 All contributors should attach a short biographical note (no more than 10 lines), typed double spaced on a separate sheet. If you are sending an article, you should also attach a short abstract (100-200 words, typed double spaced).

2. Printing the Manuscript

2.1 Start by using good typing, printer, or photocopier paper (please do not send faxes or copies of faxes, spotted or fuzzy photocopies, or faded copies). We need a clean, high-contrast copy with no staples and a lot of space in the margins and between lines. Use 10-point or larger type. Double space all text, including titles, references, extracts, abstracts, tables, and footnotes. Figures, tables, footnotes, and references should be attached separately.

2.2 Figures should be camera-ready: That is, they should consist of clean, high-resolution, line drawings of professional quality. Any type that is integral to the figure (labels, keys, or legends; numbers or words along axes; and so forth) should be in book-quality, preferable Times Roman, type. (We can strip in type or have figures professionally redrawn for you but must charge for this service.) The artwork itself should be in the form of a glossy black-and-white photograph, velox, photostat, or laser print on heavy, white paper.

2.3 When you are formulating figures and tables, remember that they will be fit into a text page that measures approximately 4-1/4 " by 6-3/4". We regularly reduce figures to about 50% to 60% of their original size, so ensure that the type will be easily legible at such reductions. Check recent issues of JHPPL for specific formats. The Chicago Manual of Style (sections 12.3 to 12.59) provides useful guidelines for formulating tables.

2.4 If you have any production questions, feel free to write or telephone the production controller, Mary Brunnemer, JHPPL, Duke University Press, Box 90660, Durham, NC 27708-0660; 919-687-3691; fax 919-688-3524; email mbrunnemer@dukeupress.edu. Post-it notes are useful for queries on the manuscript directed to the copyeditor because they can be removed easily. Direct all copyediting questions to Victoria Bilski, Managing Editor, JHPPL, Yale University, 77 Prospect Street, PO Box 208209, New Haven, CT 06520-8209; 203-432-3829

3. Documentation

JHPPL uses the author-date form of citation recommended by The Chicago Manual of Style (see chapter 16). Any recent copy of JHPPL will have specific examples to follow, but in the meantime, some guidelines are listed here. Note the conventions for punctuation, abbreviations, and the order and type of information required.

3.1 Cite the source in the text. Cite the author's last name (if it is not given in the sentence) and the year of publication in parentheses in the body of the text. If there are more than two authors, provide the name of the first and follow it with "et al." Cite personal communications with complete names and date in the text and indicate if it was oral or written.

Example 1. Proposals for addressing the situation are wide-ranging, encompassing everything from a recommendation for a Canadian-style national health system (Himmelstein et al. 1989) to an outline for a predominantly private one (Butler and Haislmaier 1989).

Example 2. Cohen (1989) reported that Medicaid fees at that time were only 23 percent of the Medicare fees.

Example 3. All state residents who are 65 or older with annual incomes of less than $12,000 (single) or $15,000 (married) are eligible (Stuart et al. 1991).

3.2 If you cite more than one work by the same author for a given year, distinguish the dates with a letter, e.g., 1990a, 1990b, 1990c, and so on.

3.3 Cite specific page numbers (such as for direct quotes) by placing them after the year. When you do not need to cite the year, as in book reviews, for which this information is given in the heading, or when author and year are given in the text, cite the page number(s) in parentheses.

Example 4. Its mandate was to enable "a beginning of the free movement of pharmaceutical products...by replacing national supervision by one single EEC supervisory body" (European Report 1975:2).

3.4 Make a list of references. Arrange the cited works alphabetically by author and place them at the end of your article or review under the heading References. Typically, the reference list is the single part of your article or review for which we may do the heaviest copyediting, so it is important that the list is typed double spaced, with a space between each entry. If the list needs such extensive changes that the typesetter could not work from the original, marked-up copy, we may ask you to retype it.

If you have two or more entries from one author, instead of repeating the author's name for each subsequent entry, use a long (3-em) dash, followed by a period. If you have several works by a given author, list them chronologically, form the earliest to the most recent.

Example 5. Becker, M., and J. Joseph. 1988. AIDS and Behavioral Change to Reduce Risk: A Review. American Journal of Public Health 78:394-410.

Example 6. Centers for Disease Control. 1987. Human Immunodeficiency Virus in the United States: A Review of Current Knowledge. Morbidity and Mortality Weekly Report 36 (Suppl. S-6):1-48.

Example 7. Citizens Commission on AIDS for New York City and Northern New Jersey. 1988. AIDS and Drug Use: Breaking the Drug Link. New York: Citizens Commission.

Example 8. Haverkos, H. 1988. Overview: HIV Infection among Intravenous Drug Abusers in the United States and Europe. In Needle Sharing among Intravenous Drug Abusers: National and International Perspectives, ed. R. Battjes and R. Pickens. Washington, DC: National Institute on Drug Abuse.

Example 9. Musto, D. 1988. The American Disease. 2d ed. New Haven, CT: Yale University Press.

Example 10. Pear, Robert. 1992a. Two in Bush Cabinet Attack Democrats on Health Care. New York Times, 10 January, p. A12.
---. 1992b. Late Changes Are Ordered in Health Budget. New York Times, 29 January, p. A10.

Example 11. Serrano, Y., and D. Goldsmith. 1988. ADAPT: A Response to HIV Infection in Intravenous Drug Users in New York City. Paper presented at the Fourth International AIDS Conference, Stockholm, 12-16 June.

Example 12. U.S. General Accounting Office. 1989. Health Insurance: An Overview of the Working Uninsured. GAO/HRD-89-45. Washington, DC: U.S. Government Printing Office.

3.5 Cite legal sources (court cases, constitutions, treaties, statutes, legislative materials such as unenacted bills, hearings, and reports) in the main body of your manuscript, not in footnotes. Books and law reviews are cited according to the rules and examples listed in section 3.4. If a case or law is well known, you do not have to provide a full citation for it, such as Roe v. Wade. The general form of citations should follow the conventions for law review footnotes in The Bluebook: A Uniform System of Citation, 15th ed. (Cambridge, MA: Harvard Law Review Association, 1991)---see especially sections 1, 10, 12, 13, and 14.

Example 13. Kranson v. Valley Crest Nursing Home, 755 F.2d (3d Cir. 1985).
[The case name is not italicized because it is complete and because a full citation is given.]

                 section 1 of the Administrative Procedure Act
                 title 28, section 556 of the Delaware Code

Instead of italicizing signals, such as See and See also, use roman type. Place the citation between commas when a mid-sentence citation is called for or (with a period at the end) after the period ending the sentence. After block quotes, set the citation flush left following the usual line space. Do not use Id., supra, and so on rather than repeating the citation. Use of hereinafter is not necessary. Use The Chicago Manual of Style conventions for books, periodicals, newspapers, and unprinted sources.

3.6 If you are not sure which format to use for any citation, provide as much information as possible; we will arrange it in the appropriate style.

Legal Citations

JHPPL is not a law review, so it does not adhere to legal writing style. However, because it is often useful to give complete citations for legal authorities, especially in articles discussing legislative history in some detail, JHPPL follows the conventions specified in The Bluebook: A Uniform System of Citation.

The only modifications we made to Bluebook style are those recommended in The Chicago Manual of Style. These exceptions cover, for example, the typeface for introductory signals, spacing between initials in names, apostrophes in dates, and the citation forms for books, periodicals, personal communications, papers delivered at conferences, and newspapers. This is for the sake of consistency and simplicity of editing. Law articles will differ from other articles only when they are citing law.

A.1 Cite legal sources (court cases, constitutions, treaties, statutes, legislative materials such as unenacted bills, hearings, and reports) in full on first occurrence in the main body of your manuscript, not in footnotes, following law review footnote style. Use short form citations thereafter. Books, periodicals, newspapers, personal communications, and all other sources are cited using author-date in-text format outlined in the style guide.

A.2 The general form of citations should follow the conventions for law review footnotes in The Bluebook: A Uniform System of Citation, 15th ed. (Cambridge, MA: Harvard Law Review Association, 1991). The sections that you might find most helpful are listed below.

  • pp. i and ii, inside front cover and flyleaf (basic citation forms for law review footnotes)
  • Rule 1 (structure and use of citations: introductory signals, order of signals, order of authorities within each signal, parenthetical information, related authority). Note that signals in JHPPL should be used as verbs (and therefore are not italicized). See section 1.2(e).
  • Rule 3 (subdivisions: abbreviations; volumes, parts, and supplements; pages and footnotes; sections and paragraphs; appendices, notes, and other addenda; internal cross-references). Note, however, that JHPPL follows Chicago Manual style for authorities other than cases, statutes, and legislative, administrative, and executive materials.
  • Rule 5 (quotations; indentation, quotation marks, citation, punctuation; alterations, omissions, paragraph structure). Applies to quotations from legal texts only.
  • Rule 6 (abbreviations, numerals, and symbols). Note that JHPPL does not use capital and small capital letters or the terms supra, intra, and so forth.

Briefly, JHPPL style differs from The Bluebook in the following ways:

  • Follow Bluebook for authorities not addressed by The Chicago Manual--that is, for cases and statutes, and legislative, administrative, and executive materials that come under the rubric of legal materials.
  • Instead of italicized signals such as See and See also, use roman type.
  • Do not use Id., supra, and so forth; rather repeat the citation. Use of hereinafter is not necessary: The reader will recognize the abbreviation.
